Reviewed source, not yet released

Added

  • A visible footer Feedback link opens the same private request composer without requiring a text selection.
  • The memorial is easier to find in search: the page title now names the obituary and Celebration of Life, and the site publishes a sitemap and structured information about Jean for search engines.

Changed

  • Jean’s bridge-playing portrait is now the primary hero.
  • At the family’s request, the “Mommy Grande Dame ’76” portrait moved from its featured position to the final place in the photograph wall, and shared-link previews now show the hero portrait instead.
  • The website obituary includes six family-approved copy, punctuation, event-detail, and donation-link presentation corrections; the separate Share a Memory callout remains outside the obituary.

Fixed

  • Desktop obituary selections now keep one stable feedback action and open the composer fully inside the viewport.
  • Photograph captions no longer repeat the year when the family’s caption already names it.
